Tell me about it...

One of my best friends, his name is Ben, totaled his parent's VW Cabrio by driving too fast, losing control and wrapping the car around a tree. Now you'd think that his parents would tell him, "Alright Ben, SOL, you'll have to pay for your own transportation now, you've had your chance."

But no, what do his parents do?

Buy him a brand new Subaru WRX, insure it and pay for all the maintence. The car is awesome and I love getting rides from him, but that is just straight up ridiculous
 
Just relish in the fact that these kids will have no financial skills when they get out of college and will probably realize how much life sucks when mommy and daddy can't get jobs for them because they have NO work experience.

Oh they can, trust me.
 
H2s are trash and they arent anyhting too special. A kid at my HS had a H1, the truck kind, it was his parents for a while and they gave it to him when he turned 16 and then they went out and bought themselves the SUV kind of Hummer H1.
 
that is retarded.... when i went into grade 9, one of the seniors there had a gorgeous yellow and black '69 Charger R/T.. used to do a smokeshow every day after school... so badass, and that was only in the nineties.. I wish I could have a car like that 🙁

My dad gave me a handshake when I got into engineering school. Why the hell would they buy me something for getting into a program? I can understand that they'd want to give you a gift for graduating from somwhere, but to get in?

Because his parents are ballers whereas your parents are not.
 
First, the H2 is a crap car.
Second, its owned by some cvnt that can't handle such a pile of sh!t.
Third, Injury must be a moron if he thinks people with parents like that will do sh!tty after hs/college. The point is, they may not even need a job. However I think most are overreacting since we're not talking about a Ferrari 430 here. Its a midrange car.
Fourth, having a nice car in hs is awesome. I can attest to that.🙂
 
My school is a rich school too. I'm probably the "poorest" kid at my school because my car is 11 years old. Everyone else has cars 2 years old or newer. I know a kid that owns a brand new H2 and G35. :roll:

price != taste. most asians have the taste to not buy hummers, or anything obnoxious for that matter.

no such thing as a C55, unless they have a time machine to go into the future and come back with a car from 1 year from now.
